We're here at the AMI (Auto Mobile International) 2012 show which kicked off today for the press and BMW had on display the F30 3 series featuring the full set of BMW M Performance parts. The BMW M Performance parts for the F30 3 series are designed to work with and bolt on to M Sport Package exterior parts.

Photos and coverage by moderator Dackleone.

Also see our interview / FAQ for the BMW M Performance Parts offering @ http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=660900

What you see in the photos below include:

• 20 Inch M Performance Wheels: 20” forged alloy wheel set (style 405M) - forged and reduces weight by 1 kg (2.4 lbs.) per wheel when compared to a similar size wheel
• M Performance Brakes: Brembo big-brake kit with painted calipers (in yellow, orange, or red). 4-piston aluminum fixed calipers on the front axle and 2-piston aluminum fixed calipers on the rear axle. Improved thermal resistance is provided by the larger, internally-vented, lightweight-construction sports brake discs measuring 370 x 30 mm (diameter x thickness) on the front axle and 345 x 24 mm on the rear axle. These cross-drilled and grooved brake discs also reduce water film build-up between the brake lining and the disc surface during wet driving conditions (at least 18" factory wheels are required).
• M Performance High Gloss Black Kidney Grilles
• M Performance Carbon Fiber Mirror Caps
• M Performance Front Bumper Splitter, Rear Bumper Diffuser, and Sideskirts (M Sport Package required for all these parts)
• M Performance Rear Spoiler - available in high quality black plastic or carbon fiber
• M Performance Suspension
• M Performance Exhaust System - for 335i
• M Performance Alcantara Steering Wheel with Carbon Trim
• M Performance Carbon Gearshift Lever with Alcantara Gaiter
• M Performance Pedal Covers and Dead Pedal / Footrest
• M Performance Carbon Fiber Hand Brake Lever with Alcantara Gaiter
• M Performance Carbon Interior Trim with Alcantara
• M Performance Floor Mat

i agree, it looks very cheesy and tacky... we are no longer in the 80/90s... and even if we were in the 90s, nothing justify using red leather so profusionally around the cockpit... cock!

[G2G]

love the interior!!

[ATX78703]

performance black stripe + 20" rims.... so stupid, but i guess it's just a display care to show off the parts. I do like the rest of the parts / accessories.

wow is that ugly

Very ugly however the brakes and wheels I could use... Prefer matte black vs gloss black kidneys

[bmwaddict]

Can somebody clarify if the quad exhaust is for the f30 or the m3 e9x? Please, thank you in advance.
